## Abstract Iron samples covered with a thin layer of activated carbon have been exposed to humid atmospheres at various relative humidities and with a various sulfur dioxide contents. Contrary to expectation the corrosion is initially faster at 55 and 65% relative humidity that at higher humiditie

Abstract
Results are presented for the corrosion of mild steel, aluminium sprayed and aluminized steel by air containing from 2%β6% SO~2~, at temperatures of 300Β°β700Β°. The influence of gas velocity, temperature, and concentration of SO~2~ has been found. Corrosion time curves up to 40 hours' exposure are given for 0.2% and 4% SO~2~βair mixtures at 600Β°. Small concentrations of water vapour in the gas decrease corrosion of mild steel, but further additions increase corrosion. The results show that the catalytic formation of sulphur trioxide on the surface of the metals is of great importance in determining the rate of corrosion.

## Abstract The rates of combination of sulphur dioxide and oxygen at a mild steel surface at various temperatures with dry and moist gases have been measured. Sulphide and sulphate formation is found to occur simultaneously, the sulphide being concentrated near to the surface of the basis steel. T
This study is a part of the FP5 Project entitled "Mitigation of Formation of Chlorine Rich Deposits Affecting Superheater Corrosion under Co-Combustion Conditions" (CORBI) which is aimed to improve the understanding of corrosion mechanisms in cases of biomass and waste combustion. The laboratory ex
In this paper we present ultraviolet reflectance spectra obtained during two sounding rocket observations of Venus made during September 1988 and March 1991. We describe the sensitivity of the derived reflectance to instrument calibration and show that significant artifacts can appear in the spectru
The corrosion was investigated on a superheater test coil in a CFB waste boiler. The alloys ranged from ferritic steel T22 to nickel-based Alloy 65 and the metal temperatures were between 460 and 540 8C. The thickness of the deposit was alloy and temperature dependent. The low-alloyed steels develop
